Description Dean Pierce 2004-12-16 10:49:48 UTC

every time that I try to emerge orinoco, it compiles all the modules, and then crashes saying there was an access violation with .tmp_gas_check

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge orinoco
Actual Results:  
icarus linux # emerge orinoco
Calculating dependencies ...done!

Comment 1 Henrik Brix Andersen 2004-12-16 11:08:12 UTC

Did you run 'make all' in /usr/src/linux prior to emerging the driver?

Comment 2 Dean Pierce 2004-12-16 12:00:34 UTC

yes, and I have also done "make clean", and neither seemed to affect the outcome.

Comment 3 Donnie Berkholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

Also see bug #75034 w/ xorg-x11. This seems to be a more general problem than just orinoco.

Comment 4 Stefan Schweizer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

Every ppc module ebuild needs TOUT=${TMP}/tmp-gas-check as BUILD_PARAM, I think we should talk to johnm to add it in the eclass.

Comment 5 Henrik Brix Andersen 2005-01-06 02:41:59 UTC

Is it safe to add TOUT=${TMP}/tmp-gas-check even when the ARCH is not ppc?

Comment 6 John Mylchreest (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

fixed in linux-info.eclass.
